This document discusses study skills and computer-assisted language learning. It notes that study skills help students organize and process knowledge, and teaching aids like charts, slides, and computers can yield rewarding language learning results. Computer-assisted language learning is described as using computers as powerful and stimulating tools to teach grammar, vocabulary, syntax, and comprehension. Computers are said to enhance student motivation, allow customization to student needs, increase proficiency, enable group and individualized instruction, provide unlimited practice, and reduce writing mistakes. Both advantages like immediate feedback and limitations like gaps between author/programmer concerns are outlined.
